Rolex 24: Building up the anticipation

Camilo and I are shooting the Rolex 24 this weekend. For those of you that aren't race fans, or just don't watch SPEED TV, the Rolex 24 is a 24hr car race at Daytona International Speedway (Daytona, FL). We have rented a HUGE telephoto lens, the 400mm 2.8 We will be sharing it, trying to get some amazing shots to build our portfolios with. BUT, I have an underlying motive... CUE EVIL SOUNDING MUSIC...

PATRICK DEMPSEY is driving in this race!!! Yes, he's Dr. Derek "McDreamy" Shepherd on "Grey's Anatomy", and wooed all our hearts in "Can't Buy Me Love", but he's also a car driver for the Hyper Sport Team. So I'm making it my mission to focus on that team, and somehow schmooze my way to meeting him! This would be the highlight of the event. I've already apologized to Camilo in advance, for him having to put up with me, while I act all Paparazzo, stalking one of the most beautiful men on earth... Because really? What woman WOULDN'T love to meet this man?
